[sdiy] RADCASTle senior design project

[David Panseri]

Thats pretty sweet! All I did for my senior project was a MIDI->CV
converter. I had thoughts of doing something similar but never
followed through. Maybe one day.

The interfaces uses rotary encoders surrounded by LEDs. MIDI input, four preset buttons. Each encoder has its own tiny cheap PIC.
